A seven-state investigation conducted last summer by a student magazine at UCLA, The Advocate, revealed the presence of an ugly strain of racism in Planned Parenthood affiliates, including Planned Parenthood of Idaho.
An actor, posing as a racist donor, called Planned Parenthood development centers and asked that his donation be used to abort African-American babies in order to “lower the number of black people.” According to the magazine, every branch – including Idaho’s - agreed to process the racially earmarked donations, and none expressed concern about the racist reasoning for the donation.
Said IVA Executive Director Bryan Fischer, “It turns out that blatant racism is alive and well in Idaho, but it’s not coming from the Aryan Nation types – it’s coming from way-left organizations like Idaho’s own Planned Parenthood.”
He continued, “If Idaho is in fact a haven for white racism, it turns out that Planned Parenthood and not Richard Butler is to blame.”
Added Fischer, “Ms. Kersey’s conduct in the phone conversation is reprehensible. She should be immediately fired, and since her thinking appears to represent the thinking of Planned Parenthood, it might be best if the organization closed its doors and left the state. Idaho is too great for hate and racism.”
Fischer concluded, “Idaho didn’t have room for Richard Butler and shouldn’t have room for Planned Parenthood.”
The press release issued by the magazine contains a partial transcript of the conversation between the actor and Autumn Kersey, the Vice-President of Development and Marketing for Planned Parenthood of Idaho. At one point, the actor says, “the less black kids out there the better.” Kersey’s response? Unbelievably, she laughs and says “understandable” – not once but twice!
The phone conversation was recorded, which is perfectly legal since Idaho is a single-consent state. Here are excerpts from the phone conversation:
Transcript of telephone conversation with Autumn Kersey, Vice-President of Marketing and Development, Planned Parenthood of Idaho:
Idaho Donor: Wonderful. I want to specify that abortion to help a minority group, would that be possible?
PP Rep: Absolutely.
Donor: Like the black community for example?
PP Rep: Certainly.
Donor: The abortion—I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose?
PP Rep: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that your gift be used to help an African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that the gift was earmarked for that purpose
.
Idaho donor: Great, because I really faced trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids to be disadvantaged against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name.
PP Rep: Yes, absolutely.
Idaho donor: And we don’t, you know we just think, the less black kids out there the better.
PP Rep: (Laughs) Understandable, understandable.
Idaho donor: Right. I want to protect my son, so he can get into college
PP Rep: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and want to make sure I don’t leave anything out.

Ms. Kersey had not returned a call from the IVA by the time this press release was sent.
The founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was a well-known proponent of eugenics to cull those she considered unfit from the population. She said in 1921 that eugenics is “the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems.” At another point, she lamented “the ever increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all.”
Planned Parenthood, obediently marching in lockstep with Sanger’s racist vision, has located 79% of its clinics nationwide in minority neighborhoods. About 35% of all abortions are performed on blacks, even though they comprise less than 13% of the population. Almost half of all black pregnancies are aborted.
Fischer’s last comment: “In essence, Planned Parenthood is engaged in a form of racial genocide.”

Complete transcript:
PP: Good afternoon, this is Autumn.
Donor: Hello, Autumn, I’m interested in making a donation today.
Autumn: Fantastic!
Donor: What about abortions for the underprivileged minority groups?
Autumn: Oh, absolutely. We have, um, in fact, uh wonderful, fantastic news. We just received a very generous donation to our women in need fund.
Donor: Wonderful. I want to specify that abortion to help a minority group, would that be possible?
Autumn: Absolutely.
Donor: Like the black community for example?
Autumn: Certainly.
Donor: OK, so the abortion…I can give money specifically for a black baby, that would be the purpose.
Autumn: Absolutely. If you wanted to designate that you wanted your gift to be used to help (an) African-American woman in need, then we would certainly make sure that that gift was earmarked specifically for that purpose.
Donor: Great. Because I really face trouble with affirmative action, and I don’t want my kids being disadvantaged, you know, against black kids. I just had a baby; I want to put it in his name, you know.
Autumn: Mmhmm, absolutely.
Donor: So that’s definitely possible.
Autumn: Oh, always, always.
Donor: So I just wanna – can I put this in the name of my son?
Autumn: Absolutely.
Donor: Yeah, he’s trying to get into colleges, and he’s going to be applying, you know, he’s just…we’re just really big…he’s really faced troubles with affirmative action.
Autumn: Mmhmm
Donor: And we don’t, you know, we just think, you know, the less black kids out there the better.
Autumn: (Laughs) Understandable, understandable.
Autumn: Um David, let me, if I may, just get some sort of specific general information so we can set this up the right way. You said you wanted to put it in your son’s name, and you would like this designated specifically to assist (an) African-American woman who’s looking to terminate a pregnancy.
Donor: Exactly, and yeah, I wanna protect my son, so he can get into college.
Autumn: Alright. Excuse my hesitation, um, um, this is the first time I’ve had a donor call and make this kind of request, so I’m excited, and I wanna make sure I don’t leave anything out.
Just when I thought I couldn’t be “shocked” anymore about almost anything, now here this comes.
Killing for birth control is reprehensible to begin with, now a mini donation driven genocide occuring behind the walls of shame of a planned parenthood clinic is even worse.
Bookmarked...
I’m only surprised that she was stupid enough to say it on the phone.
PP was created for this very reason.
Liberal Nazis. Just remember this when next time the media spews against “racist, fascist conservatives”. PP is the SS.
I agree. But how do we identify liberals at birth?
This doesn’t surprise me. Planned Parenthood will be fine, though, Jesse and Al will march in the streets saying the racist conservatives played a dirty trick on P.P..
I hope BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA will incorporate this Planned Parent’Hood policy into his speeches regarding “reporductive justice”. Then again, he votes in support of killing them after they are born alive.
Obama should be questioned repeatedly on this topic, as should his blind, dumb, and ignorant supporters. Obama is complicit to both murder AND genocide, much like those whose names his rhyme with.

Why would anyone be shocked by this?
This was Margaret Sanger’s goal. (albeit, not explicitly, but certainly implicitly)
Then again, what do I know? I’m a Huckabee supporter. I’m not a “real conservative”.
Speechless at the moment..........

” “A fundraising employee violated the organization’s principles and practices when she appeared to be willing to accept a racially motivated donation,” said CEO Rebecca Poedy in a written statement. “We apologize for the manner in which this offensive call was handled. We take full responsibility for the actions of the fund-raising staff member who created the impression that racism of any form would be tolerated at Planned Parenthood ...””
heads up

No, not implicitly. That's why she started PP, explicitly to control the population of "oversexed" blacks.
You know what I thought of? If the equivalent “sting” was worked on a conservative group, this would be front page in the NY Times.
I’m surprised that the donation wasn’t in the name of Margaret Sanger (the founder of Planned Parenthood) who advocated aborting “inferior” (non-white) people.
I'm with you, Padre...my eyes popped out of my head when I read this.
What's equally shocking is the student is from UCLA. She was brave and I hope her story isn't buried. Those tapes should be all over YouTube ASAP!
